What the hell... I just went to fight a dragon flying around up on Eldersblood Peak, only for it to suddenly die when I get to the top and fall out of the out of the sky - tried reloading and it just kept falling and dying randomly. Weird.

400+ hours and still playing Skyrim. Such a well done, awsome game. Mods will keep me busy for years.

Bethsuda is a company I admire greatly.

They also patch their stuff and not let it ride for months on end like other....cough....devs.

I am pretty sure that Rage is dead and forgotten because it was a pure garbage of a game sadly developed by veterans in game industry.

Meh liked it myself, its not game of the year worthy, but it wasn't that bad. Not o nthe 360 at least. Can't speak for the PC crowd which I heard had lots of problems. In anycase DLC seems mainly aimed at consoles anyways. But still at 160 hours I've been in all dungeons (minus a couple) have done all major quests and side quests, and I don't care much for the left over quests, so getting bored of skyrim, hopng for something new. As to the fast time compaired to most, meh I don't RP heavily. I would get pissed walking (at walking speed) town to town, stopping every night etc like some have done since morrowind and oblivion.

I enjoyed the game, and the visuals looked absolutely gorgeous and ran fast on my weak laptop at 1080p. Looking forward to the level editor and some DLC - hopefully PvP non-racing multiplayer.

Aside from AMD releasing the wrong drivers at launch and later fixing them, I think the poor fan response has more to do with some folks having difficulty wrapping their heads around the concept of partially resident textures. This is likely to be a standard feature in many future games.

I'm still roaming Skyrim and have to confess I still haven't even completed the main quest yet. Not even close. Nor the civil war... Just... so much to do. xD There is still so much unexplored. Yesterday I went into a dungeon that was the tomb of a dead couple that has their own short story in a book (Fjogr and Heilgrund? Don't remember their names, sorry). There was a necromancer who wanted to resurrect her husband who served in the Imperial army and died. She wanted to use the body of the dead man there. Maybe it's cliche, I don't know, but I find stories like that so sad, and to me it really adds something to the world I play in.

^well, cliche or not, the story was done well. You even get to find the condolance note from the Legion in the Necromancer's bedroom. That was a nice touch.

I have 6 dragon priest masks + wooden mask.

Trying to get them plus the secret powerful spells from The Book of Elements...without cheating. Figured the first riddle out...having trouble with the second.

Indeed. And personally I didn't find it cliche, but I imagine some people might, because a theme like that has been done before. 


Every time I play this game, I keep gawking at how big it is and how much time has been put into it. After hours and hours of playing I am still amazed.:happy:

I don't think I've gotten even halfway through the main quest, and I've been playing the game for hundreds of hours (across several play files) - the furthest I've gotten is escorting Esbern to Riverwood.

Hell, I haven't finished the Thieves Guild quests or even entered the College of Winterhold once - too busy traveling, raiding dungeons, and doing side quests.

This game is pretty much Morrowind all over again, for me at least - I could just play it indefinitely and never tire of it once. Sorry to hear some of the others here didn't get quite as much enjoyment out of it as I have.

Did you do the Dark Brotherhood questline, BTW? If not, make sure you do that one, as it's easily the best questline IMHO.

At 160 hrs, as to my own 800+ hrs, I am more than willing to guess that there are scores of dungeons left unseen, and I am not speaking of the random generated quests either. My recommendation is to undertake the Dragon Shout quests, the Daedric quests (either for or against them), and any Forsworn quests that arise, as these were some of the more challeging ones I recall.

Was the dark brotherhood in Morrowind? I never played it. If so did...they suffer the same fate as IV and V? Seems like that happens a lot:P

I thought thieves guild was a pretty good questline too. A little silly and over the top near the end what with it being...spiritual, but pretty good.

Pete Hines tweeted a few weeks ago that Rage and Skyrim fans would "have something to look forward to in April."

I believe the assassin quest line in Morrowind was about the Morag Tong.

I was peeved by the Nocturnal stuff at first in the TG quest line in Skyrim, but it ended up being an interesting twist.  I think there should have been more dialogue with Brynjolf later about it.

Heh, as a matter of fact they do - they're hired to assassinate you, and you end up wiping out their cell in Morrowind trying to find out who wants you dead.

They're not a joinable faction, though - instead, you can join the Morag Tong, which is the resident assassins guild in Morrowind. They don't care for the DB much, so that's why the DB has such a small presence there.

Yes, I have done the DB quests with my sneaky Khajiit.:) I have also completed the Theives Guild main questline with here. I like that one very much too. Still trying to bring back the TG to their old glory though. That takes forever. xD 
I have also completed the College of Winterhold questline (although not the quests for master level spells; haven't been able to reach that level yet), and I'm doing that one for the second time now with my latest character. She has also joined the Companions, but I don't think I have completed that questline yet, although she is already the new leader. I have stumbled across various spoilers, but I figure I have yet to get a quest that allows me to cure the werewolf thing. I don't use it anyway. The one time I turned into a werewolf to sprint longer and faster to get where I wanted to be (try not to fast travel now with this one), I immediately came across two Vigilantes of Stendarr, who - of course - turned hostile and forced me to kill them. 

None of my characters has been married either, but that's because I can't find a suitable partner for them. I can't imagine my Altmer with another race, and there are no Altmer available for marriage as far as I know. Same for my Khajiit.<_< I think my Breton lady is the first one who will get lucky.

You have to complete the final Companions mission before you can cure lycanthropy - it shouldn't take too long to get to it if you fast travel to where you need to go for the rest of the missions.

What the... I keep running into some weird glitches where dead dragons keep appearing randomly. I've never encountered this until now, and it's really starting to annoy me big time. Anyone else had this problem?

What do people think about the Psijic Order? They get involved in the College of Winterhold, and they seem to have advised leaders throughout history (and it seems like they have gotten involved at times directly, such as the Psijic Order being credited with destroying King Orgunum's fleet when he tried to take over the Summerset Isles). Given their knowledge about the Eye of Magnus, I was wondering if people had any thoughts about the group.

Celarus the Loremaster provided information on the Psijic Order and their beliefs in "The Old Ways." The College storyline seemed (to me) like the narrative was intended for a mage protagonist, and the College storyline comes off a lot better as a bonafide mage (in my humble opinion). It seems like they would try to steer a mage Dovahkiin on the "right" course, as they have a history of guiding leaders (or a potential leader, in the case of the Dragonborn).

I have long awaited the glories of the Psijic Order. just talking about them makes me mad that Bethsoft removed mysticism as a school of magic. I always prefer a custom Death-Knight build, so I have no problems with spell or sword in the elderscrolls.Image IPB

I found the Psijic Order fascinating when I encountered them. I had hoped to learn a bit  more about them. Instead the guy simply went off with the Eye.:?

Done them all for the most, lulz quest check list ftw (I have 5 left I think, minus untrackable ones). I also when I got the game got the huge strat guide with it. Which comes with a very handy map of all locations. I'm missing very few of them. Mostly the hard to reach areas. Maybe its just my play style meh beats me. Not that I used the guide to find all locations, hell just standing there talking to guards in all holds, repeatidly will unlock scores of locations on your map. Plus at the start I did alot of bounty missions for the yarls which pays off in location and gold allowing my resources to smith my deadric armor (legendary) and weapons at around level 15-18. Currently at level 45. So in general none of the battles short of wizards slowed me down. Now pretty much nothing does.

The Psijic Order is very fascinating...I think their mystery is partly what makes them that. As a mage through and through, the faction quest in general was good...not amazing, but good. It seems that the Psijic Order has power beyond what even the Thalmor possess, and don't like the Thalmor but view them as an obvious threat.

Its worth noting in my roleplaying experience, the "Order" seemed more interested in me and helping me than the College of Winterhold as a whole.

Also...ive now realized how lucky I was to find a Staff of Paralysis around my 120 hour mark (currently at 245...still didn't complete main or civil war quests) because since I got it, I haven't seen one at all since, and likewise, the staff hasn't left my inventory :P.
